No, the computer isn’t monolithic. The car will still drive even if infotainment and autopilot computers melted. Afaik there’s Infotainment, Autopilot, BMS, and Drive computers/controllers.
Tesla also uses a 12v battery to power all the computers if the HV pack fails.
> Nissan can also align panels

- api 5y agoHow did this failure mode happen then? Even if the computer isn't monolithic, it seems that some failure higher in the stack can make the car into a brick. Does the real control system depend on the infotainment system or other higher level systems for UI interaction? If so then that's basically the same thing.
